Market Your Band Online

03rd November 2008Author: Jayme Wium

I know a large number of band members and independent musicians around the country, being a muso myself, that all the share the same issues. Firstly we have great talent and each band or artist has their own network of fans and supporters, but these fans dont usually extend out of the bands home town and the opportunity for growth is somewhat limited.Besides having a gig at the local pub or club, what else can a musician or band really do in order to get themselves heard? How do they reach a bigger group of people... allowing others to hear what they have to offer? Its really simple. The internet offers a host of marketing and advertising options, but admittedly not all internet advertising opportunities work. The trick is to investigate your options and make sure that the online marketing you choose, is in fact reaching your target audience.I stumbled across a site aimed at artists and was completely astounded at the functionality and extras that it offered it members. Now by artists I mean painters, sketchers, musicians and anyone else that is involved in some sort of art or another. Specifically musicians are offered a fantastic Music Jamroom where you are able to upload your own music, mp3s, albums and much more. Here you can allow others to listen to your music and even purchase your cds.With the function of being able to customise your website page with templates to best suit your music group or band image, what more could you ask for? If you need to get your band or name out there, ask me how...
